Assuming Chartrain means "like the one in Chartres," the answer is no. It's a 3-lobed symbol for the trinity.

Thanks :) even this one was about 100 hours of constructions + 40 hours of fundraising....and it was appropriately scaled for the backyard.

Do you know what the adorable little critter is in your second picture? It's a juvenile Eastern Newt (called a red eft when young). They live around here too but I've never been lucky enough to see one myself!

Syphon: Thank you :) There seems to be a pretty good collection of us on Pweb.

Of course I know about Eastern Newts :p We have 3 small ponds on our property, and random springs all over our trails, so its not unusual to see 3 or 4 on a single hike. This little cutie was the only the second one of the year though, and his little cave made me want to take a picture.

Aww, I'm so jealous. I don't know why I've never seen one myself...I guess I don't go on enough hikes. I'm paranoid of getting Lyme Disease since literally 1 out of 4 people I know around here has it.

Gotta love the herps (especially my little baby - she had a big day today at a picnic!).

I quite honestly have no clue what an eagle scout in particular is, although I'm assuming it's basically like any other scouts group.

It's the highest rank in the Boy Scouts of America. About five percent of Boy Scouts attain the rank and less than two million people have reached it in the past century (this includes many who earned it before the requirements became stricter). Our membership includes such people as Neil Armstrong, Gerald Ford, James Lovell, Ross Perot, and Steven Spielberg.

It actually involves a lot of work, including several hours of volunteer work, multiple years of holding a leadership position in your troop, organizing, funding, and carrying out a major "service project" that benefits your community (which must be approved by the organization, your leader, your unit committee, and a district representative), a board of review wherein you are interviewed and tested on Scout knowledge, your moral character, etc. by members of your community, older Eagle Scouts, and district/council representatives, and earning a number of merit badges (twelve are required, nine are elective; most Eagle Scouts have many more than the twenty-one total needed, though).

Lol thats actually not me or my photo.

It's just mysterious pic that I use, since it doesn't really show anything, when I don't feel like posting a pic of me.

But, since I'm here to stay at Pweb, I might as well post a real pic.

Isn't that an old, pre-wedding picture? It looks familiar and not just because you look familiar.

Nope; it's from mid-April. I know this because I took it after winning the election. (And because the file is date-stamped, of course.)

ETA: But I'm pretty sure you've seen it, before, and it's the same shirt/tie combo I wore for my engagement pictures.

I'm still not sure who's going to win this staring contest. I hope it's new me! (Though avatar-me now has more eyes to stare with, what with all my extra posts.)

Gosh, Alex. You've gotten so thin, so...skeletal and terminator-like, with your red gleaming eye and Sony label.



Oh, wait, that's you off to the left. Your ear looks fantastic and just as healthy as it did when I last saw it.


Whatcha filming? :)

Secret Project.

We spent yesterday filming someone abseil down a four-story building whilst shooting people and I'm reviewing footage now of two people fighting - shot through the skull of a t-rex. I haven't really had a break since I finished exams but I'm loving this.

Sewing is for women... video games aren't for adults...

I'm not saying only, just more.

I just kinda assumed more women sew than men. :wink:
And so, it's considered a feminine thing...

Am I wrong?
